Anne Clarke’s Journey
“My painting style has developed over time from a sum total of everyting I’ve ever looked at and enjoyed. In museums, galleries and especially in books.
I have been influenced, therefore, by too many to mention, rainging from cave piainting to the present day.
I have borrowed too, elements from the Asian aesthetic, especially their use of space.
“I was always an observer, still am”
Anne Clarke
